About the Book

In Country School Days, Larry Scheckel takes us back to his boyhood days, growing up with eight siblings on the family farm in the hill country of southwestern Wisconsin and attending the one-room country school out on Oak Grove Ridge. Oak Grove School was the social heart of the community, from the basket social in the fall, to the Christmas program, to the end-of-the-year school picnic. Learn of the joys and challenges faced by students in the country school. Join Scheckel on his nostalgic and evocative journey as he shares his memories of friendships forged and lessons learned during his eight years in a one-room country school with 28 kids and one teacher in a building the size of a garage.
About the Author: Larry Scheckel grew up on a family farm in the hill country of southwestern Wisconsin, one of nine children. He attended eight years of a one room country school, four years of high school, off to the military for a spell, trained in electronics as a TV broadcast engineer, married, college, and started a teaching career. That career stretched over thirty eight years teaching physics and aerospace science to over four thousand high school students at Tomah, Wisconsin. Larry Scheckel has been named Tomah Teacher of the Year three times, and Presidential Awardee at the state level for six years. He is the recipient of the Tandy Award, Kohl Award, Wisconsin Physics Teacher Award, Health Physics Society Award, Ron Gibbs Award, and Excellence in Science Teaching Award. Larry likes to bicycle in the Driftless area of south central Wisconsin, jog on the back roads, fly a Cessna 150 over the verdant countryside, work crossword puzzles, read newspapers, historical books, and trade magazines, and fly radio controlled planes. Larry and wife, Ann, are both retired teachers and live in Tomah, Wisconsin. Larry has written books and a new one on the way.
